even some republicans say they voted for mccain in 2008. they said, look, president obama's a good man. but they feel he took on too much too fast in the first 20 months and maybe the process has sort of gotten beyond his control. they're not blaming this completely on him. but look, we just saw in the last 24 hours there's going to be some more turnover here. larry summers, the president's top economic adviser announcing he's going to be leaving after the midterms, that follows peter orzag and christina romer. the only person left is going to be tim geithner. and this shows that the white house realizes while larry summers was planning to go back to harvard, that they're going to have to make changes comes out of these midterm elections because that frustration has not gone away and it's palpable among the supporters. >> one of the other things this morning is this new book from bob woodward which paints a lot of arguments about the war in afghanistan. it's called obama's war, the president looking for a way out of afghanistan. any reactio
